First Legal Support becomes a member of IFIG
22/10/08
FIRST LEGAL SUPPORT has recently been welcomed as a new member of the Insurance Fraud Investigation Group after a recommendation from major client, Zurich Insurance Company.
The group was founded in the mid- 1990’s and originally provided a small number of insurance fraud investigators with the means of coming together to discuss the increasing problem of fraud against the UK insurance industry. Since then, IFIG’s membership has grown rapidly and now stands at over 220 member organisations, consisting of Insurers, Investigators, Loss Adjusters, Lawyers and Law Enforcement.
All IFIG members are committed to the organisation’s key aims of Detecting and preventing Insurance Fraud; raising the profile of Insurance Fraud as a crime; providing a forum to discuss anti-fraud initiatives and techniques; and sharing relevant intelligence via the National Intelligence Model. To achieve these, IFIG has developed close associations with the ABI, Insurance Fraud Bureau, law enforcement agencies and regulatory bodies including the FSA, SIA and Law Society.
Andy Drewary, Director of First Legal Support, said: “We were fortunate enough to be recommended to join IFIG by Zurich and I feel that our membership will prove to be very beneficial.”
